Why the hate against Khan? Come on in for the answer

[skel1983]

Hes a cock plain and simple, obviously there is always racist cunts about and they seem to crop up more hid behind there pc screens with there abuse on interent forums.

But the racist slant just doesnt sit right with me, i work with approx 250 asian/muslim lads and id say about 2% have a good word to say about Kahn, they were even coming in saying how the Barerra fight was fixed and they wished Kahn would of been smashed in cos hes a cocky so and so etc etc.

I think alot of the abuse/hate comes from the fact he has so much so early without actully acheiveing anything, and to say he is not cocky?? The same guy who said he was quicker and would beat Floyd after 8 fights as a pro?

To sat hes the best prospect i totally disagree with that 100% Theres a reason he has by passed decent British pros like Murray and Thaxton because Warren doesnt want him exposed at such a low level.

Kahn fights Barrera and gets a world title shot while making millions of pounds while poor Prescott cant buy a fight and people seem to forget he knocked Kahn out cold in less than 60 seconds??

Kahn is a tool if you ask me.

Same thing happened to Froch... early in his Career the BBC did a best thing since sliced bread campain and Froch made alot of bold claims with only a few fights under his belt... this rightly so pisses people off.

sadly for Froch he didn't have the race card to play

But you know the idiots only blame whites for racism. So should every white boxer that is hated play the race card and say non-whites only hate him because he is white?

I find it odd saying this, but I think it's true. Imo, the number 1 reason why Khan is being hated is because of his ancestry background.

Well I can't stand Khan for most of the reasons mentioned here, yet I was a massive fan of Naz who went on about his religion and where he was from all the time yet he had a huge fanbase.

I think you will find that where his parents were from/his religion/skin colour etc... have absolutely nothing at all to do with why boxing fans don't like him.

I hate Khan for a number of reasons and race doesn't come into it. I dislike him because a) He talks so much crap it's unbeliavable b) People must pay PPV to watch him fight bums c) The Barrera fight was a HUGE farce and a con job on a legend d) Getting a shot at a title at 140 on the basis of what?

The guy is a fraud and people keep shelling out to watch him. He was lucky to get Barrera on his resume and he does not deserve a shot at a belt at 140.

I hope he gets sparked again and sooner rather than later.

He could be blue, green, pink or coloured like a rainbow. It doesn't matter. I just don't like him.

Its a shame but Anthony Mundine is a big mouth too and draws all kinds of hatred.
He originally thought to copy the footsteps of his hero the Great Muhammad Ali by being outspoken for Islam.

People hate him cause he spouts off over anything and some of his native Aboriginal brothers pull the race card out over other fans hatred of him as well, so its not limited to just Kahn.

They are right in some instances though ;
We don't need those kinds near mainstream boxing yelling racial insults etc they need to be hurled out as fast as if they threw cans at the fighter (which they also did to Mundine once after he beat Sam Soliman in their second fight).

Well, I think I've not read the same stuff as you as I've seen nowhere where he opened his mouth that much to deserve crap, he's miles and miles and miles behind PRince Naseem, Tarver, Roy Jones Mayweather etc in matter of talking crap, he doesn't even come close to Haye, matter of fact. As for the Barrera fight, it is not exactly his fault if the fight did end up this way so I do not see no reasons here neither to hate him, it's not like if he would have said: "well, let's clash up head with Barrera and end up this fight in controversy to make sure nobody will give me the credit I deserve". As for a Fraud, he's still a silver medalist, that should show that the kid has at least some talent somewhere though it doesn't automatically make him a world champion.
